    find the latest updated files

    After the configuration run, there are lots of files updated.
    How to find the latest updated file in certain time range?
    Like under WinXP or Win2000, we might specify the time range to search.

    What desktop are you running? In KDE there is a Properties tab for the Find program that allows you to select a date or time range.

    The find command has such options. You might use something like this, for instance, to search for files updated within the last 3 minutes:
    Code:
    find . -cmin -3
    If you run the man find command, you will find a whole score of options. Options regarding times can be found under the TESTS category.
